5 months is such a fun age! Alyssa Marie is so animated in her expressions and her laughter is too cute. She is the sweetest baby and just loves to be around people. She smiles for strangers, bats her blonde lashes at her Daddy and reaches for me when she wants a snuggle. She cracks Riley up with her chatter and he laughs so hard when she toots. I just love having her around. It's comfortable with two at home now and we love our life with our big boy and sweet girl.
A peek at our Lu:
*She had her first sleepover June 18th and she rocked it sleeping all night til 5:00!
*She started jumping around in the johnny jump up in the middle of June and she loves it!
*She also started rice cereal on the 20th and it is slow going. She spits most of it out but I think I finally figured out that if you let her teethe on the spoon most of the cereal stays in.
*She goes to bed at 7:15 like a champ and sleeps until 6:00 most days. We are loving this schedule (knock on wood!)
*She puts her hands on my cheeks when I hold her close and I can feel her love when she does it. Nearly knocks me off my feet when she stares at me with her pretty blues while I feel her soft hands.
*She is eating 6 ozs every 3-4 hours and we mix up rice cereal 1-2 times a day.
*She just used her last size 1 diaper : (
*She is wearing lots of onesies these days with the heat and most are 3 months but we have started pulling out the 6 month ones.
*She gets us soaked at bathtime with those chubbers kicking up water furiously.
*She loves to grab at everything and nothing is safe in your hands if you are holding her.
*She loves to shop.
*She wants to sit up on her own so bad!
*She is gnawing on everything and loves her teethers!
*Last night she said "dadadadada" but it was just babble, D was pretty excited though.
*She still has sparkly blue eyes (I think maybe she is keeping them? :) and her hair gets lighter everyday.
We are so excited that we get to experience every new and exciting stage with her all over again. She is just so darn pretty and is literally getting cuter everyday. We are so lucky.
